Default Residual blossoms - to pluck or not pluck?

Just wondering what others do when a blossom has converted into a small tomato and the residual blossom is still attached? Do you pull them or do you just leave them attached? I always try to pluck mine off gently but have always wondered if that is the right thing to do? I guess I have this silly notion that by leaving it on it will cause blemishes on the bottom of the fruit? I am sure I have pulled some tiny tomatos off accidentaly over the years which is always frustrating. Just wondering what others do and was hoping someone could chime in about my blossum paranoia. :-) Thanks!
